Chapter Six- What Was I Thinking?
Author's Note- I don't own DBZ. PUFF! I do own Nerissa. Please review. Read my other stories, too. Now on to the story.
Later that day, after Nerissa has had her hand tended to, Piccolo meditates outside the building. Nerissa peers outside the window at Piccolo.
"You like him, don't you?" Bulma walks up and sits on the floor by Nerissa.
"What is he doing?" Nerissa deliberately avoids Bulma's question.
"Meditating. He does that often. Piccolo just doesn't understand the importance of interaction. He is a loner to the core."
"Who is Gohan?"
"Gohan is the son of a dear friend of ours, Goku. After Goku died, Piccolo took care of Gohan. Gohan is like the son, Piccolo can't have. Gohan is the one who changed Piccolo."
"Changed him?"
"Piccolo was evil. He wanted to take over Earth. Piccolo grew fond of Gohan and Gohan's innocence changed Piccolo into one of the good guys. Piccolo is still dark though and he still acts like he doesn't care but everyone knows he really does. I think the only one who doesn't know is him." Bulma explains.
"I understand, now." Nerissa's aqua eyes do not waver from Piccolo.
Piccolo breaks meditation, feeling eyes upon him. He turns to see Nerissa's aqua eyes watching him. Nerissa's eyes do not waver as Piccolo's endless dark eyes meet her stare. She can feel her heart beat faster as the warrior looks at her almost as if he was looking into her very soul. Piccolo smirks at Nerissa and goes back to his meditation.
"Bulma, please, tell me about everyone. I am interested in this Gohan and even Vegeta."
"Well…" Bulma goes through the stories of all the warriors. Nerissa listens but her eyes still rest on the namek warrior. During Piccolo's medition, he senses the former mermaid's power and it surprises him. Her power is more than he had imagined. Her power could be very well greater than his.
"And Cell was our last enemy, that was five years ago." Bulma ends her stories.
"Thank you, Bulma." Nerissa continues to gaze out the window.
"Tomorrow we are having a gathering here. Try to get Piccolo to stay. Most of us haven't seen him since the battle with Cell."
"Why would he listen to me?"
"He doesn't want to upset you again." Bulma winks knowingly at Nerissa.
"You are bad!" Nerissa laughs with her new friend.
At the dinner table, Mrs. Briefs serves steak, which Nerissa enjoys. Yamcha brings up the gathering, "So Piccolo are you going to stay for the party?"
"What party?" Piccolo acts uninterested and is playing with a fork.
"The gathering we have every year on Goku's birthday." Bulma giggles.
"No. I am not staying." Piccolo states firmly.
"Why not?" Nerissa asks.
"I need to get back to my training." Piccolo gets up from the table.
"Fool." Nerissa mumbles.
"What did you say?" Piccolo turns to have Nerissa in his face.
"I said you are a FOOL!" Nerissa returns Piccolo's anger.
"Well you are CHILDISH!" Piccolo continues their argument.
"You're an arrogant, self-obessed, JERK!"
"You're an annoying, spoiled BRAT!"
Their intense argument leads to the entire household as spectators. All of a sudden, Piccolo grabs Nerissa and kisses her intensely on the lips. Nerissa stumbles back in surprise. She looks at him confused and he looks at her just as confused. She retires quickly up the stairs to her room."
"What just happened?" Yamcha looks at Piccolo as confused as everyone else.
"You saw nothing." Piccolo says monotone and leaves Capsule Corporation abruptly.
Nerissa leans back on the inside of the door, her chest heaving and her breathing quick. Piccolo just kissed her and it wasn't just a peck on the lips either! It was positively amazing! Nerissa slides down the door to sit on the floor. She just sits there, thinking.
Downstairs, Bulma answers the phone. Gohan tells her their usual gathering will be held at the Lookout atop Korin's Tower instead of the Capsule Corporation.
Gohan contacts his old friend telepathically, "Mr. Piccolo, will you please join us tomorrow at the Lookout?"
"No. I hate those stupid parties." Piccolo says sourly to Gohan, telepathically.
"Please, Mr. Piccolo. It will be fun. Bulma just said you left Capsule Corp."
"Did she say anything else?" Piccolo asks hurriedly.
"Uh, no, why? Oh yes, that reminds me, how is your mermaid?"
"Er, no reason. She is fine."
"What's wrong, sensei?"
"Nothing, Gohan. I'll be there tomorrow."
"Oh! Ok!" Gohan says surprised.
Nerissa makes her way to the bed and put on the frilly pink pajamas. Bulma knocks at the door, "Is everything alright?"
"Yes, Bulma."
"Goodnight, sleep tight." Bulma says sing-song.
****That's the end of Chapter Six. Please R&R! A kiss? What does it mean? Just what was Piccolo thinking? All in the next chapter!****
